After originally indicating their season was done, Zach Newlin and the Mansberger Motorsports team decided to extend their season with a trip to Lincoln Speedway on Saturday night, October 8th.
The team missed a few planned races earlier in the season due to weather and other personal reasons, so the equipment still had some laps left in it and the team wasn’t quite ready to call it a year.
October 8: Lincoln Speedway / Abbottstown, PA
[37 cars, Heat 2nd (3), A-main 10th (10)]
A deep field of 37 cars signed in to compete, setting up five 8-lap heat races for the 358 sprint cars. The top four finishers would transfer to the A-main, with the top two making the handicap. To qualify for the handicap, drivers need to have established a points average by participating in at least one previous race at the track this season.
Heat race lineups were set by a pill draw. Zach Newlin was slated to start inside row two in the first heat race of the evening but took the green flag from the outside of the front row after one of the front row starters opted to drop to the rear of the field.
At the drop of the green, Dylan Norris got out in front to grab the early lead. Newlin settled into the second spot and held the position for the duration of the event. Despite finishing 2nd, Newlin did not qualify for the redraw since he had not competed at Lincoln Speedway during the 2022 season.
Newlin lined up 10th for the 20-lap A-main, just behind the handicapped starters. The feature event was slowed multiple times by cautions, bunching the field and providing opportunities to make moves. The Millerstown, PA native fought hard throughout the event, moving just inside the top ten at times, then slipping just outside for a few laps.
Ultimately Newlin came home with a 10th place finish, a respectable result on the team’s first trip to the Abbottstown, PA oval, especially against the field of cars assembled Saturday night.
Up Next
The team plans to return to Lincoln Speedway Saturday night, October 15th to extend their season yet one more night and hopefully end their up and down season on a high note.
